Aurora Borealis From Space

If you had to fly around the earth in a Space Station, at least you’d get to see a great light show.

“Time-lapse video from the ISS on Jan. 29, 2012. These sequences of frames were taken at the rate of one frame per second, therefore the slower speed of the video represents nearly the true speed of the International Space Station.This video was taken by the crew of Expedition 30 on board the International Space Station. The sequence of shots was taken January 29, 2012 from 10:18:13 to 10:31:28 GMT, on a pass from the North Pacific Ocean, approximately 1,000 miles west of California, to western Quebec.”
